(enrolled in specialist training programme at Kings college for endodontics, 3rd year)
I qualified at Bristol Dental School in 2000 and spent the following few years in the Southwest gaining experience first in hospital and then in practice. During this time I gained my membership with the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh.
I have undertaken various postgraduate courses such as implants, cosmetic dentistry and advanced restorative dentistry at the Eastman Dental Institute with an aim of improving my dental skills to the highest standard. This led to an interest in endodontics (root canal treatment) and so I enrolled on the specialist training programme at King's college London for endodontics.
My aim is to provide high quality endodontics in an efficient manner. I enjoy treating nervous patients and changing their often unfavourable opinion of root canal treatment. The treatment is complex due to the anatomy of the tooth however my aim is to make it a comfortable experience. This is achieved with effective local anaesthetic in a pleasant and relaxing environment. I carry out both initial root canal treatments as well as re-treatments where the root has already been filled but has not healed. I have been concentrating on endodontics for the last few years and have recently limited my practice to endodontics. The aim of which is to focus on endodontics and so provide root canal fillings to the highest standard.
